Peepers classic reading glasses The Rogue in red and tortoise

The Rogue

We can all be roguish at times! Our tiny, round The Rogue spectacles in sleek black, trendy tortoise, or saucy red fronts with tortoise temples are a step outside the standards box when it comes to readers. The rounded design delivers a unique and unexpected shape that hearkens back to the pince-nez styles of the early 20th century. However, the upward-pointing bridge brings modernity to the forefront, turning a classic on its head. For those who wear their hair short or in updos, the pinhole detailing on temple tips adds extra flair.
